Live Voices on Q-FM

SO----
We have live voice on Q-FM. I heard a guy this afternoon---not all that impressive. Don't know who he is, but he sounds like he was not even alive when some of the older songs were on the charts. You'd think they'd want to really hit the live shifts with someone big, bold and quite possibly familiar to the listeners. There are enough castoffs from Citadel & Entercom out there who are pretty decent jocks who could have been used. If nothing else, I am now interested to hear the female they have doing AM Drive.
Overall, though, pretty UNDERwhelming.

What they do very well is operate computer equipment!!..........Clue: learn about the music you are playing, talk a little bit about it, mention years, and keep talking about wx and local stuff....listen to some of the guys who have done it for a long time....Frankie, Ed, Doc, and do it like you are talking to a friend....Hey, maybe I should take my own advice! :)<P ID="signature">______________

I read this post several times but I still can't find the part where he wants us to meet him with the ransom money!
 
> Who the hell is ED?

You don't know ED???...I can't believe that you've never heard of ED! He's done all the big shows in his career...The original ED & Sue on KRZ, Daniels & ED on Rock 107, Eddie in the morning, the ED morning Zoo. He even had a show on NBC for a while...Man! You don't remember ED??
